Thank you for your interest in this Indian Rail app. This app is given for free and is completely non-commercial and the only intention is to spread the word of Indian tourism and Indian railways and add convenience to travelers. It is intended as a voluntary service to India on its 63rd anniversary of Independence. The author receives no money and the app does not permit any financial transactions. This app is provided as-is and is for informational purposes only. To actually book tickets, please visit www.irctc.co.in. Please add any comments or suggestions below.

Sorry for the downtime of the app. Indian Railways changed a few things on their end and the app had to be updated accordingly. I appreciate all the emails that requested the app to be back on. I am trying to negotiate with Indian Railways for them to adopt the app given that so many people find it useful and also to add the ticket booking and reservation feature. If any of you know a high powered Indian Railways Officer and/or Senior Politician or Member of Parliament, please do let me know so we can make this work the property of the people of India.
